Bitcoin power dey come from decentralization and trustless verification so running your own personal node na one of the best way you go use support both and also keep or dey in full control for your money.
Key reason why you need to run node:

1. Verify Transactions Yourself.
Nodes dey Always check so that all transactions go follow Bitcoin rules, so no need to trust exchange or wallet blindly..

2. Keep the network decentralized.
Every node dey store full copy of the Blockchain.
More nodes = harder to censor, manipulate, or attack the network.

3. Relay Transactions.
Node dey pass transactions and blocks to the network, this one dey make sure say Bitcoin dey fast, synchronized, and reliable.

4. Enforce Consensus Rules.
Node dey always help enforce protocol rules way dey help protect Bitcoin from invalid blocks and malicious actors.

5. Privacy and Control.
When you dey use your own node to send transactions en dey prevent third party to track am.
This one dey very important for lightning network users way dey usually want full control over channels and payments.

If not for anything, considering for the security a f privacy of running a node is important, which is going to be of benefit to us in the use of bitcoin, which makes it more difficult for anyone to penetrate us for any related activities that aimed at ripping is of our assets, the process of running a node may be demanding, but really worth it.

We can be interested in giving a try under this thread and read more https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5480200.0

No be everybody go fit run bitcoin node despite all the benefits or advantages wey u done mention concerning running a node. Among all the listed advantages or benefits, na two I know dey very good which is privacy and control. This one dey very important, to improve privacy and not to involve any other person as regards are bitcoin transactions and also the control aspect. However, running of node is not for everyone despite the advantages

Of a truth the benefit dey immense for you as an individual and to the network, but the challenges we as Nigerians get to run Bitcoin node na data, bro I see shege for the huge amounts of money I spend for data when I been run my Bitcoin node in the middle of this year, at first I no expect to spend so much on data, but as I don start already, I just no wan quit am so I just burn the money and complete an.
Another challenge na light to keep our devices on, especially those in rural areas, but if we fit overcome all these challenges, e dy very beneficial to the network and you, because e go improve your knowledge on one or two about Bitcoin technical aspects.
